Neera Tanden heads Hillary Clinton's thinktank

Neera Tanden who challenges the Indian-American stereotype of a wealthy upper class background has been asked to head 2008 Presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton's think tank.

Neera Tanden grew up with a divorced mother who was on welfare for two years and received food stamps before she worked her way through school and graduated from Yale law school. Early this week, her already impressive policy career was topped by her appointment as Hillary Clinton's campaign policy director.
